Rob,

Hello, I'm Hope, nice to meet you... :-) I had to implement the very same
configuration for journaling.

The mailbox [EMAIL PROTECTED] receives a copy of all mail from SMTP service
and has a rules.ima, along with a corresponding fwd file (actually, there
are more rules and fwd files but I chose to simplify this example):

File listing rules.ima
H~(@foo|@foodig|@foo-dig):foojournal
H~.:NUL
B~.:NUL

File listing foojournal.fwd
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Then, the mailbox [EMAIL PROTECTED] has a rule set to save the mails to
the sub-mailboxes IN.MBX and OUT.MBX:

File listing rules.ima
F~(foo|foodig|foo-dig):OUT
H~(foo|foodig|foo-dig):IN

This saves a copy of every mail from and to all foo's maildomains into two
separate sub-mailbox files. Using a daily job with immsgexp.exe, we keep
only the last 7 days for this mailbox (which is several hundred megabytes
per MBX file).

Hope this helps,
Marius

Hi All --

I want to use "cascading" rules, but Imail isn't cooperating.

Scenario:

E-mail is addressed to me.  I have a rule that triggers on that e-mail.  It
forwards to another Imail mailbox.  This part works fine.
That second (destination) Imail mailbox also has a set of rules, these rules
forward to a sub-mailbox.  These rules do NOT work when the the e-mail is
forwarded after triggering a rule in my mailbox.  These rules DO work when
e-mail is sent from outside of our domain.

Any hope?

Thanks in advance.

Rob
